Acts 7:5-7

International Children’s Bible

⁵ God did not give Abraham any of this land, not even a foot of it. But God promised that he would give him and his descendants this land. (This was before Abraham had any descendants.) ⁶ This is what God said to him: ‘Your descendants will be strangers in a land they don’t own. The people there will make them slaves. And they will do cruel things to them for 400 years. ⁷ But I will punish the nation where they are slaves. Then your descendants will leave that land. Then they will worship me in this place.’^[a]
